I just about completely fell off the wrapping truck. Haven't felt like doing it much, but I got a lot of these Sumatra Agates and decided to wrap a couple. After taking the pictures, I feel like maybe I should have warmed up a little first. LOL!!!

Those are gorgeous agates! Not seeing where you would need to warm up at all. The bead on the bail of the first one doesn't do anything for me, but the wrapping looks flawless.

"Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience."

I'm with Robin on the bead on the first one but as she so eloquently said, the wrapping is flawless. I haven't wrapped in a while either, maybe I'll get back in the saddle too.

Gorgeous stones, flawless wraps. Since elegant was already taken, I had to look up synonyms. Graceful, refined, sophisticated all work.
